Memorial Park

Memorial Park is Jasper's oldest and largest park, located in the historic North Highlands area of the city and is named in honor of our armed forces service members from our area who lost their lives in service of our country. Within the park are pavilions, a playground, softball and T-ball fields, a mile-long outdoor walking track, a pond, the natatorium and outdoor swimming pools, Lee Swann Gym, three soccer fields and Senior Citizens Recreation Center. Memorial Park is a very nice place for any family to enjoy the outdoors. The five softball fields are centrally located within Memorial Park at 14th Avenue and 6th Street. All youth and adult softball games are played here.
